Southgate is selecting from one of the strongest and deepest English talent pools in recent memory, with those at their peak like Kane, Raheem Sterling and Harry Maguire supplemented by young prospects Phil Foden, Jadon Sancho and ‘not-yet-old-enough-to-buy-a-pint’ Jude Bellingham. Even so, it will be the England manager’s biggest call since phasing out all-time leading goalscorer Wayne Rooney and his most contentious since practically becoming a national treasure during the 2018 World Cup. The Nations League semi-final collapse against the Netherlands in 2019 bore similarities to the Croatia elimination a year earlier, and underwhelming performances in the same competition this season saw England briefly threatened by relegation. Group fixtures 13 June : England v Croatia - Wembley, London 14 June : Scotland v Czech Republic - Hampden Park, Glasgow 18 June : Croatia v Czech Republic - Hampden Park, Glasgow 18 June : England v Scotland - Wembley, London 22 June : Czech Republic v England - Wembley, London 22 June : Croatia v Scotland - Hampden Park, Glasgow Predicted squad Goalkeepers: Dean Henderson, Jordan Pickford, Sam Jonhnstone Defenders: Ben Chilwell, Conor Coady, Eric Dier, Reece James, Harry Maguire, Tyrone Mings, Luke Shaw, John Stones, Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker Midfielders: Jude Bellingham, Jordan Henderson, Mason Mount, Declan Rice, Kalvin Phillips, Bukayo Saka Forwards: Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Phil Foden, Jack Grealish, Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford, Raheem Sterling, Jadon Sancho Ones to watch Star man: Harry Kane Breakout talent: Phil Foden If you can still qualify as a breakout talent when you’ve won three Premier League titles and are preparing for a Champions League final, then Foden is surely Odds 5/1 Prediction England’s draw is relatively kind, even if it includes World Cup conquerors Croatia, but winning Group D would probably mean playing one of France, Germany or Portugal in the last-16.
